How to survive the flight to Bloemfontein?
We’ve rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you’ll be zooming through airport security and exploring Bloemfontein in no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a hassle-free travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let’s start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and important medications. Next, bring items that’ll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. It’s also wise to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like ice skates, and items that could harm other people, such as guns and swords, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort really should be the goal when selecting what to wear on board. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swollen feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are your best bet.
  • You’ve probably heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are plenty of ways to minimize your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks, drink plenty of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Do a lap or two of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Bloemfontein?
As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be well organised before you get to security. That way, you’ll be boarding that plane to Bloemfontein in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a fantastic start:

  • First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be shown to security personnel. Have them close by so you don’t hold up the queue.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner’s alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you’ll be back online in no time.
  • Remove all gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren’t.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
